INTL security - Domestic flight
Just another data point.
I have used the international security for the last month (CLEAR after 8:00a / regular before 8:00a) when flying domestically as the security line is empty in the morning. I have never had a problem with TSA while holding a domestic BP.

Just wondering... did you also check-in at the international terminal for your domestic flight?
Also I wonder if one can check luggage for a domestic flight at the international terminal?
Thanks for any answers^

Nice!
For those who have PPass, it should work for NW and RCC both in the intl side.
I can use the BA lounge with my BA Gold
food, booze, room and free wifi!
But with my redeye I won't have a chance to use that and I doubt the SKL will let me in as a *G on UA F.
At least I can use the RCCs

I did OLCI - so unfortunately I am no help. If I had to guess though - I would not think you would be able to check in at the INTL terminal or check baggage. Just a guess though.

It was 3 months ago when I last used International Security. A TSA agent required that I used my passport as photo ID but my US Driver's license is not allowed due to International terminal. Not that I don't have my passport, but it's just easier to pull out my driver's license from my wallet.

For me SFO is the best intl. airport in the States.
In terms of "first point of entry" (immigration), international departures and
connections. (all with United)

Just used the walkway for the first time the other day. A true improvement for dom-Intl connex!
Wondering if this will affect/improve the minimum connx times at SFO.
